Re: Targa Top - Blue Glass
Joe, I also got a transparent top from Melrose. The one that came with my '95 was a non-GM replacement made of Lexan which delaminated. Melrose uses GM frames and glass (polycarbonate I think but not sure). They were good to deal with. BTW I saved a fair mount off the list price of $825 by bringing my old top to him/picking up new top and paying cash. --Bob

Re: Targa Top - Blue Glass
I copied the link and think I will get the rear hatch weather strip from them. My 96 didn't have a transparent top and I purchased one from Thompson Astro Tops. After 3 or 4 years the top separated. They only have a 1 year warranty. I did wonder if I caused the failure as you have to adjust the mounting plates to fit your car. It always went on easy without any trouble so I assumed I had it adjusted correctly. Anybody use Thompson or have had a problem with their tops? I did see them or somebody selling their tops at Carlisle and their display doesn't exactly inspire confidence.

I have used Thompson, and found them to be very good. I have used Melrose, and found them to be excellent. If the choice is mine; I go Melrose first, then Thompson as first runner up. Marty |
